HOMER hg19 not found in config.txt

Hi!

I am trying to run findMotif.pl from HOMER, in order to detect some regulatory motifs in a set of fasta sequences. When I type:

findMotifs.pl sequences.fasta hg19 .

I get the following error:

!!! hg19 not found in /mnt/lustre/scratch/home/programs/HOMER/.//config.txt
        Try typing "perl /mnt/lustre/scratch/home/programs/HOMER//.//configureHomer.pl -list" to see available promoter sets
        If avaliable, type "perl /mnt/lustre/scratch/home/programs/HOMER//.//configureHomer.pl -install hg19" to install

I have executed those commands and now this is my config.txt file:

# Homer Configuration File (automatically generated)
#
# This file is updated from the Homer website and contains information about data available for
# use with the program.
#
# Each section has the same format, which is <tab> separated values specifying:

So, actually hg19 does exist in my config.txt file.

Additionally, I have checked HOMER data directory and it has all neccessary files:

/mnt/lustre/scratch/home/programs/HOMER/data/genomes/hg19

How can I solve this?
